PSY 3094 Psychological Measurement – Scale Construction Project
The aim of this project is to develop a scale measuring a construct related to psychology and to report its psychometric properties. You will work in groups and prepare a report including the following componets given in the table below. The Assessment Rubric summarizes the details that should be included in each part of the report and how they will be graded. Please submit a copy of this rubric with your paper for grading.
including the title of the project, the Group No/Name, the Name, Surname and Student No of the group members
